Soon I will be changing out the stock swingarm on my X1 for one with a "custom" finish. I think I want to go with a brushed aluminum look or smooth silver powdercoat. Anybody have a picture of something similar? I don't want to polish it because then it wouldn't match the rest of the bike... BTW- What is the finish on the front fork tubes? Anyone know? |

Anyone want to take a stab at it? |

If you powdercoat the mounting block, avoid coating where it mates to the engine to avoid grounding issues. |

Thanks Shadow- that is a good tip. Also considering anodizing, I think that might be a good match for the fork tubes. Anyone here use Grand Stand Designs (BadWeb Sponsor)? |
